September 2009 sees the launch of the new SMTBOX - One Box, All SMT Spare Parts website which has been redesigned and rebranded in collaboration with Zhuhai based digital agency and search marketing specialists, FISHJAR.
The website has been re-launched with a vibrant new look, new content, significant layout updates and features the latest SMT equipment and SMT spare parts part list functionality including a powerful and innovative SMT search facility.
The new site covers every sector and discipline across the marcomms community including advertising, marketing, design, digital, PR and sales, with the latest SMT products offer now arranged into sector specific pages. You will even find a handy list of industry-recognised bodies on each sector page.
Talking about the website, Liu Ren Jun, Managing Director at SMTBOX, commented:'We are delighted with the new website. It represents our specialist approach to recruitment and reflects our long-term strategic plan to become a national leading PCB Electronic Assembly Equipment, Surface Mount Technology (SMT) Spare Parts Supplier industries. As well as aligning the design of the site with our fresh new branding, we wanted to update the content and functionality of the website to fulfil expectations from both partners and clients.'
Dying to tell us ways of improving it?
We want our new website to be everything you want it to be and so would love to know your thoughts. You can be as honest as you like, so please email any (constructive) comments to support@smtbox.com and let us know what you think.
Surface-mount technology (SMT) is a method for constructing electronic circuits in which the components (SMC, or Surface Mounted Components) are mounted directly onto the surface of printed circuit boards (PCBs).Electronic devices so made are called surface-mount devices or SMDs. In the industry it has largely replaced the through-hole technology construction method of fitting components with wire leads into holes in the circuit board.
An SMT component is usually smaller than its through-hole counterpart because it has either smaller leads or no leads at all.
It may have short pins or leads of various styles, flat contacts, a matrix of solder balls (BGAs), or terminations on the body of the component.
Printed circuit board
A printed circuit board, or PCB, is used to mechanically support and electrically connect electronic components using conductive pathways, or traces, etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate.It is also referred to as printed wiring board (PWB) or etched wiring board.A PCB populated with electronic components is a printed circuit assembly (PCA), also known as a printed circuit board assembly (PCBA).
